People become better with age, but horses become more slippery! This old saying doesn’t deceive me. Zeng Guofan has been around the sea all his life. He could do such a career without real ability.
This life's training finally came together to form a special function that is close to intuition. He said that the old school has a conspiracy, and it's not bad, there is a conspiracy!
The Fu Hall of Prince Gong's Mansion is at the core of the back garden. It is heavily guarded. They are all Guiziliu's cronies. Not even a bird can fly in!
The idle prince was leaning on the couch, his braids were disheveled and his face was red. He smelled of alcohol and had obviously drank a lot!
Under the soft cave, Lord Beile Zaicheng, Prince Qing Yikuang, Eratu, the direct descendant of Xishan Camp, Enguang, the former guard of Donghua Gate, and even the big-nosed foreign instructor Xie Duowan were also present!
These are the direct descendants of Guizi Liu's subordinates, and they are close friends who cannot betray. Some things are safer to say to these people than to Lao Li, Prince Shiduo and the others.
"The situation is like this. Our little emperor has made up his mind not to let us live anymore. Think about what to do!" Prince Gong's eyes were as red as a rabbit. He didn't know whether he had cried or drank too much. , the group of direct descendants below all lowered their heads and said nothing, but their faces were also livid and ugly.
Yixin looked at the clock on the desk next to him. It was already past three in the morning. The Forbidden City outside fell into a deep sleep. Only the sounds of wild cats and dogs occasionally sounded, and a few shrill owls made the sound even more disturbing. Heart palpitations!
"From yesterday afternoon until midnight, there was a constant flow of people coming to my palace!"
"It's all the old people from the Eight Banners who came to cry with me. Even people with the status of Prince Laoli, Shi Duo, cried like children. You have all seen what the other Eight Banners princes are like!"
"Okay! Our Long Live Master is so kind! I have repeatedly tolerated and given in, but he keeps pressing forward! This really doesn't give us Eight Banners brothers a way to survive!"
"It's so heart-breaking!" Yi Xin punched the soft table with one punch. "How heart-breaking and crazy is this? More than 40,000 people, more than 40,000 children of the Eight Banners, and he was beaten into a flag slave with just one sentence?"
"Where are the rules? Even if the children of the Eight Banners are the emperor's slaves, they still have to act according to the rules!"
"Yixuan is right next to the Qinghe River. People died every day in the concentration camp, and I was tortured every day to extract confessions. I didn't say anything! After all, my first priority is to avoid suspicion. Who makes me more suspicious!"
"The second reason is also because of the ancestral family law! This is what our Qing Dynasty has stipulated. There is a difference between master and slave. There is no reason for the flag master to let the slave die!"
"Long Live is the co-leader of the Eight Banners. He can kill anyone he wants. Even if he kills me, I have to give him his head!"
"But... killing people! It's not allowed to touch the Eight Banners! You can kill my people, but you can't change the qualifications of my bannermen! There have been very few cases of seizing the flag since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs!"
"Except for heinous crimes such as regicide, even if you kill someone, you can't take away someone else's identity as a bannerman! Without identity, what will happen to the descendants of this family? Then there is no possibility of rising again!"
"What do you mean by hard-core crops? They keep growing from generation to generation. You can't dig up other people's land or destroy it!"
Zai Cheng was also beating the gong, "Yes! What Ama said is right. Back then, Ao Bai was so arrogant and domineering. Even if Emperor Kangxi locked him up, he wouldn't die!"
"Later, Ao Bai's descendants were rehabilitated. Kangxi never said he would take away his hardcore crops!"
"Even if the bannermen are very powerful, considering the contribution of our ancestors to conquering the country, we still have to leave some way for others to survive! If you kill me, you will have to leave a grandson and a descendant to inherit the incense!"
"This tyrant is so cruel. He turned more than 40,000 people into factory slaves? His status as a bannerman was completely stripped away. This was the root of the Qing Dynasty!"
Zaicheng stomped his feet angrily, "Amma! We can't sit still and wait for death. I met many juniors in the back study today, and some of them have already told me..."
"If this emperor continues to act like this, then please give me your permission and use your weapons!"
Enguang, the former guard of Donghua Gate, was given the job by Zai Chun himself, and was beaten to half death. His butt still hurts on cloudy days!
When he mentioned Zai Chun, the light in his eyes was blue. "Yes, Mr. Beile is right. During this period, I have also carefully inquired among the bannermen. The entire Eight Banners have endless complaints about the faint king." !”
"Almost 70% of the people said that the emperor should be sidelined. Although the remaining 30% did not say so clearly, they are just timid and afraid of getting into trouble. They dare to get angry but dare not speak out!"
"My lord! You have to take action. Just let Hun Jun cut them off one by one. In the future, there will be no Eight Banners! Today, we cut off forty or fifty thousand people with one cut. What about tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow?"
"How many people are there in the Qing Dynasty? We have to kill a little less. If the system of the Eight Banners disappears, we will not be able to compete with the Han people in the future!"
Prince Gong turned his head and looked at his direct descendant Eratu: "Olatu, you are the slave of my family who gave birth to children. You know my trust in you!"
"Why did you become a battalion commander instead of a higher position? That's because it's easier to attract attention if you're too high, and it's easier to hide if you're lower!"
"What do you think of the current situation?"
Eratu was the battalion commander who was forced by Zai Cheng to kill Emperor Tongzhi, but he refused to listen to Lord Beile and just obeyed the prince's orders!
He was able to be transferred from Xishan Camp to Prince Gong's Mansion to serve as the core of the guard. His loyalty is beyond words!
"Your Majesty! I don't have any ideas. I am the sword and gun in your hand. I will hit wherever you point!"
"If you want to become emperor, I will be the first to rush to the Forbidden City. If you are beheaded at the Meridian Gate, I will be the first to wash your floor with my blood!"
"Okay! Okay...good boy, I did not love you in vain!"
"Where are the others? Mr. Yikuang and Xieduowan, what do you think?" Yixin turned around and asked.
The French instructor Xie Dowan had the violent gene left over from the French Revolution in his bones. When he heard this, he immediately sneered and said, "My lord, power is never free!"
"A coward should not live in the political arena, but can only farm the land! My attitude is very clear, that is, I must take action and cannot sit back and wait for death!"
"You give the order, and I will make a plan for you and choose the soldiers!"
"Okay, okay... Yikuang, what do you think?" Guiziliu finally looked at Prince Qing and asked in a low voice.
Prince Qing Yikuang put down his big smoking gun and puffed out a puff of smoke. His eyes were narrowed into slits. "This...it's definitely not possible to just sit and wait for death!"
Before he finished speaking, he yawned, and tears flowed down with the yawn. "Ah... of course we can't sit still and wait for death, but... but does this Qingjun side make sense?"
"Qingjun side? Who should be cleaned up? Xiao Letian or Zeng Guofan? Fu Qing or Baojun? Or should the two empress dowagers be cleaned up?"
"It's useless, the root cause of the disease is not in these people... Even if it is in them, do you dare to touch Xiao Letian or Zeng Guofan?"
"You can't beat me... If you ask me..." Yi Kuang has smoked too much, and he is so bold at this moment, "If you ask me, just kill that little brat Zai Chun!"
"This is the perfect solution!"
